The GF's Roundtable was opened with a presentation by Don Jansen, the Executive Director, Board of Examiners of Electricians for Massachusetts. He covered several pertinent topics including arc rated clothing and stray voltage. Mr. Jansen has a wealth of knowledge and his session was informative and very interesting.

Jason Lavallee then presented an update on the "Massachusetts Hoisting License" requirements for continuing education in order to clarify some of the misconceptions held by many of the NEPPA members. 

After lunch, Steve Socoby highlighted some of the new OSHA 1910.269 requirements including the new training requirements, minimum approach distances, and the implementation dates set forth by OSHA this year. As a result of this session, NEPPA is planning OSHA compliance classes for this fall or early next year. Stay tuned!
